921 hookup

If you only hookup tuner, will it make it a pain to use? My in-laws have a 2 tuner DirecTivo. They only hooked one tuner and they always got messages telling themto hook up the other one. Very annoying.

More than "a pain!" It won't work, period! BOTH tuner inputs MUST be connected for the unit to work.

If you're concerned about a 2nd cable run, the DishPro 44 (available next year) will allow two tuners with one cable (assuming your don't have a crappy RG6 or RG59 that can't handle 2Mhz).

Will I have problems if I'm using di-plexers to get my OTA antenna feed on that same cable too?
